Regensburg
Regensburg on the Passau-Nuremberg main line in south east Bavaria sees a steady succession of national and international freight trains, operated by a wide range of rail hauliers. Here a lengthy car train pulls away after a short halt at Regensburg Hauptbahnhof on 17th June, hauled by vintage ex-Deutsche Bahn motive power in the shape of Class 221 106-8 of the Potsdam-based EGP company. The Class 221 - reminiscent of the British 'Warship' design - is a post-1962 derivative of the 1950s' Class 220 (originally V200.0), DB's first series-production diesel-hydraulic express loco [with thanks to Bill Jamieson].
